  Upgrade of Linac peak current from 50 mA to 60 mA is one of the keys to the next power upgrade in J-PARC. Beam studies with 60 mA were carried out in July and December, 2017, for the challenging issues such as investigation of beam property from the ion source, halo behavior throughout the LEBT, RFQ and MEBT1, emittance/Twiss measurement at MEBT1, beam emittance control, etc. Expected/unexpected problems, intermediate results and preparation for the next trials were introduced in this paper.

The LANSCE Accelerator facility currently utilizes four 800 MeV H beams and one 100 MeV proton beam. Multi-beam operation requires careful control of accelerator tune to minimize beam losses. The most powerful 80 kW H beam is accumulated in the Proton Storage Ring and is extracted to the Lujan Neutron Scattering Center facility for production of moderated neutrons with meV-keV energy. Another H beam is delivered to the Weapon Neutron Research facility to create un-moderated neutrons in the keV - MeV energy range. The third H beam is shared between the Proton Radiography Facility and the Ultra-Cold Neutron facility. The 23 kW proton beam is used for isotope production in the fields of medicine, nuclear physics, national security, environmental science and industry. Minimization of beam losses in the linac is achieved due to careful tuning of the beam in each section of the accelerator facility, imposing restrictions on amplitudes and phases of RF sections, control of H beam stripping, and optimization of ion sources operation. This paper summarizes experimental results in accelerator operations and categorizes various sources of emittance growth and beam losses.

  The ESS linac is currently under construction in Lund, Sweden, and once completed it will deliver an unprecedented 5 MW of average power. The ion source and LEBT commissioning starts in 2018 and will continue with the RFQ, MEBT and the first DTL tank next year and up to the end of the fourth DTL tank in 2020. This paper will summarize the commissioning plans for the normal conducting linac with focus on the ion source and LEBT and application development for both commissioning and operation.

  The UNIversal Linear ACcelerator (UNILAC) at GSI aims at provision of high brilliant ion beams, as it main purpose will be to serve as injector for the upcoming FAIR accelerator complex. The UNILAC injects into the subsequent synchrotron SIS18 applying horizontal multi-turn injection (MTI). Optimization of this process triggered intense theoretical and experimental studies of dynamics of transversely coupled beams. These activities comprise round-to-flat beam transformation, full 4d transverse beam diagnostics, optimization of the MTI parameters through generic algorithms, and extension of Busch's theorem to accelerated particle beams. Finally, recent advance in modeling time-transition-factors and its impact on improved linac performance will be presented as well as progress in the optimization of ion charge state stripping.

  The particle longitudinal dynamics is affected by errors on the phase and amplitude of the electro-magnetic field in each cavity that cause emittance growth, beam degradation and losses. One of the causes of the phase error is the change of the ambient temperature in the LINAC tunnel, in the stub and in the klystron gallery that induces a phase drift of the signal travelling through the cables and radio frequency components. The field flatness error of each multiple cell cavity is caused by volume perturbation, cell to cell coupling, tuner penetration, etc.. In this paper it is studied the influences of these two types of errors on the beam dynamics and it is determined their tolerances such that the beam quality is kept within acceptable limits.
